sMoKEas PIPE.

To all whom t may concern l A Be it known that I, GEORGE EVERE'IT a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at 'Porterville, in thel county of Tulare and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Smokers Pipes, of

which the fol-lowin isa specification.

This invention re ates tosrnokers pipes.

Specification of Letters latent.

Application led May 7, 1912. Serial N o. 695,646;

The object of the' present invention is toprovide a smokers pipe involvin details of construction, having 1n view the notion of protecting the smokers mouth from injurious contact with by-products of combustion of tobacco in the pipe, the latter being provided -with 'mem-bers so perforated and chambered as to collectand condense material during the combustion of the tobacco, and designed with the view of avoiding the possibility of particles of tobacco from passing from-the bowlof the pipe through the Stem. Y'

` A further obje-ct of the Vinvention yis provide a pipe of sectional construction, the

sections being Aesigned for ready removal and thorough cleansin The invention consists of the parts and thecombination and construction of parts,

as hereinafter more fully describedand claimed, having reference to the accompany- 1 3C!V i ing drawings, In which- Eigure l is a longitudinal vertical section through the improved pipe. Fig. 2 is a View of the bowl end of the central section. Fig. 3 -is a View of the stem end of the central lsection. In its illustratedy embodiment my invention consists of a suitably shaped and sized "bowl '2, having the usual tobacco receiving chamber 3, and from the lower portion of this chamber there is led a plurality of downwardly projecting passage-ways 4, terminating in the collection c a'mber 5, the lower end of which ishsealed with a. closure or removable button or stopper 6 'The condensing. chamber 5 is formedtin a rearwardly extending part 7 of vthe bowl, to which lis suitably connected, as by a screw threaded 4stem 8, a body or section 9 of suitable length and diameter, th'e opposite end of which is provided with a screw l0 whereby it may be detachably secured to the mouth piece or stem 11. The stem is longitudinally perforated as at 12, and this perforation coincides with a central perforation designated' as z', throughout the central section 9 of the pipe,

but theiiue z' terminates adjacent the front end of the body 9,'being closed by a transyverse wall 13 on the opposite side of which 1s formed a conduit 14,-, intersecting with the upper portion of the condensing chamber 5 of the pipe bowl.

Since the transverse wall 13 of the pipe section 9 is interposed between the chamber 5 and the stem opening 12, I have provided the central body portion 9 of the pipe with a series of lues or passage-ways extending from endl to'end therein, the passage-ways being so cross-connected as to form a continuousy circuitous pass through which the fumesof combustion may be exhausted from the pipe bowl through the mouth piece .11,

and the arrangement of the circuitous pas-v sage-ways in the body 9 of the pipe will be readily understood by referring to Fig. 2, in

which there is indicated at a a longitudinally extending `o ening which communicates at its forwar end with the condui't'l4 in the stem 8, from which fumes of combustion will be drawn through the duct a extending substantially patenten Mar.; as, Isis.,

lengthwise of the pipe section 9, whence it will flow :downwardly toward the rear end of the section through a vertical transverse `channel b, connecting with -a'lower longitudinally extending duct c, through which the smoke' will be drawnforwardly, thence transversely across the pipe section 9 through a short channel d', which communip cates with a longitudinal. bore or duct e, through which the smoke will travel rearwardly through the body or section 9, entering a cross-duct at the rear end of the section, 9, thence owing into a longitudinal passage-Way g, through which the smoke is conducted forwardly and from thence through a diagonal port 8, from which it is delivered into the central fluez' which registers with the stem bore 12. The end pas-l sage-ways b and f at the rear end of the body section 9 are formed by slightly vrecessing the end wall ofthe section, and when the mouth piece 1l is assembled in position it eifectually closes the transverse passageways b and f so thatthe smoke is compelled to traverse these passage-ways when en tering the longitudinal ducts. The forward end of the pipe section 9 is formed with a transverse duct or passage-way d which is 30 throughthe circuitous passagelwaysinthe recessed 'in the'end niiv the section 9, and/is closed by the asemblingof the bowl body to the body section 9. 'v f The smoke passages 4 -in the bowl 'will greatly reduce the suction while smoke is being drawn :tromthechamber 3, and this' greatly reduces the possibility of drawing pieces )ofl tobacco fromx the bowl which is so common in lthefordinary ipe, then when the smoke enters `the chamA r 5 itis cooled to a considerableextent on account of .this

' chamber beingso'much larger than the other smoke'I'Jas'sagesy-"-l The chamber 5 actsin another capacity in that since, it vmuch larger than the'combined area of; the openings 4, and by-reason of its vertical position in the bowl body incase any' pieces of passage-ways provides a pipe of smaller size vtobaccoarel drawn into .the collecting chamber-'5, they cannot be drawn fromf'this into',

the flue section 9 or the` s'temll becausev on 'account of 'the volume of the chamberl fthe suction in it will-:not be `great enough to particles"`of material inthe same;"and

also by-reason vof the 7cocling 'ofthe smoke in the'chamber 5 the nicotin moisture Ii3"con- I vvdensed toa greatextentand willfbe deposited inthe chamber'and prevented from entering ,tlie A"circuitou's' flue' in the section 9.

'The fsmoke 4"drawn rom'the condensing chamber 5, is' considerably cooled bypassing pipe section 9, and sincethe several passageways in the pipe elements are all substan- 'tially of strai ht form without sharp' curves or corners, y simply disconnecting `the members 'of the pipe. these' passageways' may be most etectually readily andl thoroughly cleansed.

It is one of the main objects oi" this pipe to provide the equivalen-t of a long stem pipe in a small convenient vsized article,l which can be easily y'carried in the pocket.

It is well known that srnolrers preferl a long stemmed pipefor the reason that smoke and fumes of combustion are reduced in rtemperature so as to be more agreeable, as when a long stem .pipe is used, and by the present y invention the' formationof. the. circuitous y giving 'substantially long stem pipe. A

the same. results asa Having thus described my inventiomlwhat I claim and desire to secure by Letters PatenteislfA smokers pipe having a bowl provided Vwitha combustion chamber, a substantially vertical condensing chamber out straight passage-ways forming a continuous flue connecting the condensing chamber with an'aperture ofthe mouth piece.

*2Q A smokers pipe having a bowl provided with a combustion chamber, a condensingchamber, said bowl having i plu rality of ducts connecting said chamoers,

removable closure permitting access to the condensing chamber, said condensing chamber having Isubstantial length and being'- larger than the combined area of said ducts whereby particles of tobacco entering the condensing chamber will tie-retained therein,

a mouth piece having a longitudinalfiue,

and aV central detachable body section provided with a plurality' of parallellongivtudinally*extending passage-ways, some of f.

which 'are erossconnected, said section haw' ,ing a substantially continuous central line divided by a transverse wall, said central Jiiuebeing 'connected at one end in front of the'transverse wall to one of the longitudi nal lues, and the central' flue being connected lbehind -the transverse wall to anbther'of thelongitudinal dues, the' flues of the central section forming a continuous cireuitous passage-way communicating with the mouth piece. c

In testimony whereof l have hereunto set my hand in the presence of .two subscribing witnesses. j v GEORGE EVERETT.
